    Where do I contact Dr. Frye? The same paypal email that was recommended, or does he have another known preferred method?

    Update: contacted Dr. Frye. He thinks it's a possibility that it is a bacterial, or fungal infection, or a mix of the two. He will be sending baytril and silversufa. I really hope this works. I asked if the frogs should be separated, as e one is in isolation, he suggested that since they've lived together and raised together, it would be more stressful to keep them apart, and to treat the frog that is not showing signs with baytril unless any actual symptoms arise.

    Now, I'm just left wondering if I can still use coconut fiber as a bedding for the pair of them and leave it planted or not, otherwise I have some deep cleaning to do while the other is in the hospital tank.

    Thoughts? I'm a little paranoid about the naturalistic woods I have in there. Definitely have been decreasing their humidity, though.

    Myself would move both frogs together into hospital enclosure during treatment duration and sterilize the main one as per post no. 5. Sorry I'm telling you to tear whole vivarium up and get rid of everything that can't be sterilized; but there are no other options . That is the reason a proper quarantine is important, specially when moving frogs into an expensively decorated live vivarium.

    Hardly your fault! I work at petco, so I can always get more. I guess what I'm not sure of, is after they, primarily the one, are treated, is a planted tank okay for them? How do I prevent said infection from coming back or am I doomed to a paper towel/unplanted terrarium as long as I have them? Haha
